Fallon McElligott Presiden-Creative Director Bill Westbrook will relocate from the agency's Minneapolis headquarters to head Fallon's New York office, according to executives close to the agency. Mr. Westbrook, it was said, will be in New York for at least one year. He was expected to announce his retirement in the coming year. Mr. Westbrook didn't return calls by deadline. A Fallon spokeswoman downplayed the move as "no big shift." However, she added, "He'll be spending more time in New York."
